Year 6 2019-2020
Mrs Hopwood
Year 6
Assistant Head
Welcome to Year 6! Our Year 6 team consists of Mrs Blockley and Mrs Hopwood and Mrs Weston. Year 6 is always a busy year, we work hard but have lots of fun too!
Residential to Kingswood is in February and we are very much looking forward to it.
Homework will be given out on a Wednesday and needs to be returned on a Monday. The half termly pieces can be returned any time during the half term. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask.
SATs week is the week beginning Monday 11th May and information will be given nearer the time.
PE sessions will be Tuesday and Friday, however we do ask that your child has a full PE kit in at all times in case there are any timetable changes!
Your support at home is invaluable. Please help by practicing times tables. Children must know all their tables and related division facts. They should also use the fact that 3 x 7 = 21 to help them recall that 0.3 x 7 = 2.1 and 30 x 7 = 210. The children are now familiar with all four formal methods for calculation and we would encourage them to practise these as much as possible.
Looking at ways for children to problem solve around the home is also a great way to practise too e.g. when cooking dinner thinking about times, weights etc
